Cerro Santa Ana Natural Monument, Natural monument in Paraguaná Peninsula, Venezuela

Cerro Santa Ana rises 830 meters above sea level in the center of Paraguaná Peninsula, featuring three distinct peaks and varied ecosystems from arid to humid zones.

Franciscan friars established the settlement of Santa Ana near the mountain in 1519, marking the first Spanish presence in the peninsular region of Venezuela.

The mountain serves as a natural laboratory for biological research, containing multiple vegetation zones that support diverse flora and fauna species native to Venezuela.

Visitors can access the natural monument through the Coro-Tacuato-Santa Ana road, with park rangers available to provide educational guided tours of the protected area.

From its summit, observers can see the San Luis mountains, Coro sand dunes, and even the Caribbean islands of Aruba and Curaçao on clear days.
